If there wasn't a rail trail built between Methuen and Derry, this would be perfect case for TOD, as that line would spur off the Haverhill line... For now, it'll be a bike oriented development

I really hope. However. I think there should be a path on that side of the station to connect to this parcel here as well as ones in the area near Oliveiras, going parallel along the tracks. There might be a tricky crossing for the track that goes off to the east

Regarding East Somerville, I think there's plans in the future for it to be a lot of TOD for the space across from the bike path. I think having a 2nd entrance either on the Oliveiras or closer down on the bike path would be much better. It seems like there's a waste of a walk to go to where the...

2 out of 6 floors done on the Central Square project

Is CarGurus no longer going to be the main tenant? I thought Lego would be only 5 and probably the rest of the floors CarGurus

I looked into it and this street is a private way. I assume one of the lots there made a private way and started off selling off lots to build on. It doesn't happen often this close to downtown probably. And it probably isn't in the city's best interest to buy it, given it'd be a small road to...

A few new developments have taken shape / have frames in my neighborhood. Side thought, is it kind of cheaping out if this street Geneva St, where the 1st pic is, remains a bumpy dirt road? I would think that takes away from the value of the u/c condos. Maybe a proper street and sidewalk could...

Has there been any recent thoughts about the viability of considering the renovation or expansion of Beachmont? I would assume it would have an uptick in ridership come the increase in residents in Suffolk Downs by 2030.

I think it opened Sunday. It was busy last night and seems to be off to a good start, and with a LIQUOR LICENSE

I went by on a jog last night and from what you can see on the inside everything is done on the interior, even the monitors are on with ads. Probably an opening before Thanksgiving

https://www.bldup.com/projects/1198-north-shore-road pretty sizeable TOD. This might deserve its own thread

Out of curiosity- the opening must be coming up. On another note, why did the gates end up being only four over that huge addition? Is it just a tight space next to e11 and e12? Or are these four gates specifically designated for wide body/ the largest jets?

This will have a demand for ridership. The area around it is open to TOD. It's an area that's less car-centric. This is well connected to other highly trafficked areas. And I could even see people visiting Porter for leisure. I think Porter could grow from this. Also, this provides a great...

That wouldn't be a bad length of a commute for Needham residents. I wonder if there's more support or nimby from them at the moment? I wonder if there's a demand for light rail connecting Newton and Needham? Or is it more car-centric and seen as promoting multi-unit developments. The Needham...

This might belong in crazy. But is the red line test track a viable right of way to be used for anything? A short link between Seaport and Andrew Square? In the long term there could be some type of cut n cover connection with a futuristic GLX extension that existed in the current SL tunnel. For...

I am riding the D line to my office now, with my commute from Eastie to Newton being severed by the Sumner closure, and boy am I impressed by the speed of the D branch. I think I fully see how much inspiration to build a GLX there was from the D branch being a functioning light rail in Boston...

Amongst its existing neighboring buildings in its block it's sticking out in height, however from a distance it doesn't really modify the cityscape with MacAllen and Cambria right there. And by sticking out, I mean that in a positive light. I hope this is a great catalyst for the remaining tight...

The triangular parcel there's building is abandoned iirc, and that's a great parcel to ideate a perfect building for the "what's left to build on thread".

The design and architecture for this block for sure. The buildings in this hot spot are surely changing quickly though
